What is a Master apical file?
a. largest file that goes to working length

d. corresponds with gutta-percha point to obturate the canal
e. all of the above
e. all of the above
1. What is the Master Apical File?
a. To introduce a smaller file and pass the working length
b. The distance from a coronal reference point to the point at which canal preparation and Obturation should terminate.
c. Reintroducing a small file during canal preparation.
d. To introduce a smaller file2-mm short of the working length
b. The distance from a coronal reference point to the point at which canal preparation and Obturation should terminate.
2. What is the Crown-Down Technique?
a. A technique of canal instrumentation with early flaring of the coronal 2/3 of the root canal system prior to apical chemomechanical preparation.
b. A technique of cleaning and shaping where opposing physical forces guide each instrument to stay center and shape the root canal system.
c. A cleaning and shaping technique allowing smaller files to clean and shape the apical 1/3 followed by sequentially larger files.
d. All the above
e. None of the above
a. A technique of canal instrumentation with early flaring of the coronal 2/3 of the root canal system prior to apical chemomechanical preparation.

b. Using a hot instrument and the remaining GP is vertically condensed
c. Gates Glidden drills are used
d. Peeso reamers
b. Using a hot instrument and the remaining GP is vertically condensed
8. What can happen if lateral cones are not placed deep enough or get crinkled during placement?
A. overfilling of obturation materials
B. overextension of obturation materials
C. voids or discrepancies may be seen in the body of the root canal
D. none of the above
C. voids or discrepancies may be seen in the body of the root canal
